More than two meters tall, pure white, with smooth lines, this is a general-purpose humanoid robot with the widest application range. It can be called a universal robot and can be used for reconnaissance, combat, assistance, mining, and engineering.
Although it is not as efficient as professional robots, it can be useful when needed.
Professional robots are easier to use, but adding one more type would require an extra production line, and he is not yet that extravagant.
Chen Xu reached out his hand, patted the robot, and said, "Send it for debugging."
According to safety regulations, robots coming off the new production line must undergo a one-year test. But he couldn't wait that long, so he compressed the time to ten days.
After ten days, unless any problems are found, large-scale production will begin.
He was under a lot of pressure. The host analyzed the combat effectiveness of the black slime that he named parasitic armor, and the material was the video of the battle.
The result showed that it has strong combat capability. When it turns into armor, a direct hit from ordinary artillery shells cannot kill it.
There is another detail: when the man was wearing the parasitic armor, a part of his arm was blown off, but when the parasite left, his hand grew back.
This means that parasitic armor can give the host powerful recovery capabilities. In the future, when dealing with them, they must be killed with one blow, otherwise they will recover quickly.
Moreover, after the parasite separated from the host, it turned into liquid with strong penetration ability. The robot had waterproof function, but it could not prevent its penetration. In just two seconds, the chip was penetrated.
With the instantaneous speed it displays, no robot of any model can be its match in a one-on-one fight.
Fortunately, it did not show any long-range attack capabilities, and its weakness was quite obvious. As long as he assembled a large army of robots, it would be enough to crush it head-on.
Then, Chen Xu thought about that human. What kind of relationship did he have with the parasite? Who was the main one and who was the auxiliary one? Also, there couldn't be only one human on this planet. There must be a group of people. Where did they live? All kinds of questions emerged in his mind. Unfortunately, the human was dead and he couldn't get the answers now.
"It seems that we need to increase the intensity of exploration."
…………
At noon, Chen Xu came to the study room carrying a basket.
As soon as he walked in, he saw Luo Xiyun take off his glasses, walk over and sit down at the dining table.
"How's your learning going?" He brought out the food, handed over a pair of chopsticks, and asked casually.
Luo Xiyun said, "Very good."
Chen Xu said, "In fact, the artificial intelligence in this world is somewhat different from what I have encountered before, and the direction of development is slightly different."
"Oh." She didn't react in particular.
Chen Xu said, "In the previous world, the algorithms were more outstanding and almost researched to the extreme, and the emphasis was on maximizing the use of chips. The algorithms of artificial intelligence in this world are not that good, and the main method is to pile up the performance of hardware."
Luo Xiyun asked, "Why are you telling me this?"
Chen Xu smiled and said, "Just chat, find some topics that interest you."
Luo Xiyun didn't say anything after all.
After spending a few days together, the anger in her heart had subsided a lot. She was no longer as confrontational as before. Her attitude was still cold, but she didn't say any unpleasant words.
Chen Xu felt that this was progress. As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Many things need to be done slowly. In a subtle way, you can achieve your goals.
Ten days passed in a flash.
Chen Xu confirmed that there were no problems with the robot's detection and officially started production.
The maximum daily output of the production line he built could reach 50 units. However, at the beginning, it could not operate at full capacity and the daily output was only 10 units.
After each robot leaves the production line, it must undergo two days of testing and only be sent out to perform tasks after being confirmed to be qualified.
As robots were continuously produced from the workshop and assigned to various locations, the base's operation became smoother. Moreover, there was enough capacity to expand outward again.
The direction of expansion is an iron mine dozens of kilometers away.
Before I knew it, another month had passed.
"Mr. Chen, we found an entrance to a settlement that is suspected to be inhabited by the natives of this planet."
After receiving the notification, Chen Xu immediately rushed to the control center and was very happy to receive the news. He had sent out several batches of robots in the past month, and finally there was good news.
He asked, "Where?"
Soon, a picture of a hidden cave appeared on the screen, with coordinates next to it.
Judging from the location, it is right in the middle of those mountains.
The first places where suspected human traces appeared were those mountains. The several batches of robots sent by Chen Xu went to the mountains to search.
Hard work pays off, and finally there is a discovery.
The entrance to this cave is very hidden. It is located in a valley and hidden among tall trees. No wonder this cave was not photographed when the landing ship landed.
"Keep monitoring first and don't alert the enemy," he said.
Although he was very curious about the inside of the cave, given the current strength of the base, it was not the time to attack.
Chen Xu left the control center and came to the biological laboratory. This was the place he visited most frequently in the past month. He had a hunch that this parasite would be his biggest enemy on this planet. He wanted to know what weaknesses this thing had so that he could deal with it in a targeted manner in the future.
Feng Song's research on parasites produces a lot of results every day. According to him, he can write more than ten heavyweight papers that can win the highest award in biology.
Chen Xu was not very interested in this, he wanted to know what other capabilities it had, and then evaluate how much of a threat it would pose to the base.
After asking Feng Song the usual question, Chen Xu asked, "Has the indigenous clone installed the biological intelligence brain?"
Feng Song said, “It has been installed.”
"Very good, activate him, I have a mission for him."
Feng Song took him inside, and in front of a transparent cabinet, there lay a human body, which was the clone of the original indigenous human.
The cloning technology here is already quite mature, but unfortunately, the memory of the original body cannot be cloned. He is actually a cyborg with an indigenous body.
Chen Xu asked Feng Song to implant a biological intelligent brain into his brain.
The civilization Chen Xu was in had already developed the technology of biological computers, but it was not yet mature enough and could only store some images and sounds, but could not be read. The side effects were also great, and in severe cases, it could cause death. He didn't dare to implant such a thing in his brain.
After Feng Song operated for a while, the cabinet opened by itself, and the clone inside opened his eyes, sat up, and stepped out.
"Mr. Chen." He bowed.
Chen Xu said, "I have a mission for you. You sneak into the natives and collect all the information you can. Be careful not to die there. You must bring back the intelligent brain in your head."
The clone said seriously, "Yes, Mr. Chen."
Chen Xu asked him to change back into his original clothes and then sent someone to take him to the cave.
He had thought of this plan a long time ago, and now that he had found the cave, he officially began to implement it.
In fact, he didn't hold out much hope. After all, the clones didn't understand the native language of the planet. Even if they got in, they probably wouldn't be able to move forward. If they ran into someone they knew, they would be killed in a matter of minutes.
However, even if it fails, it doesn’t matter. It’s just the loss of a clone, which is not a big deal.
PS: I’m not in good shape today, only two chapters have been written.
